FLAME & FURY Shocking moment Texas election candidate Valentina Gomez BURNS Quran with a flamethrower as she vows to ‘end Islam'

Gomez has previously filmed herself torching two LGBTQ books

THIS is the shocking moment a Republican Texas election candidate shared footage of herself torching the Quran with a flamethrower in a vile Islamophobic campaign ad.

In the video, Valentina Gomez claims her goal is to "end Islam" in Texas - despite Muslims making up just one per cent of the state's population.

Gomez, who is running in the GOP primary for Texas' 31st congressional District, caused outrage after posting the video of herself burning a copy of the Muslim holy book on X on Monday.

She is heard saying in the video: "America is a Christian nation, so those terrorist Muslims can *** to any of the 57 Muslim nations.

"There is only one true God, and that is the God of Israel."


This is not Gomez’s first display of Islamophobic views.

I am not Texan, so I can't exactly criticize her since I don't know the dynamics of inter-religion relationships/tensions there...But I feel she can as well have made her point without burning that Book.

If that's what Texans want, then so be it..After all, Christianity is non-existent or heavily persecuted in many Islamic countries..

I also know as a fact that the native Indians who are the original aborigines of America were not Christian...So I am kinda at a loss when people like this lady say America is a Christian Country grin

As per her burning of the Muslims Holy Book, I leave that to Muslims to supply her with a "robust response" grin...

All these extremists on both sides.Religion is a plague to mankind.Religion is man made and anything man made comes with flaws.Religion is an opium of the masses.

I wish her the very best in her chosen path, she will meet her match, she's entitled to her opinion.

Some people don't know how to live life and don't value gift of their life that God gave them. Not even her President Trump will be this reckless.

Let's learn to practice our religion in peace and let others do their own in peace too.

Some daring moves there, but it's good, the other people have done worse than this and heavens didn't fall.

FIRST TO COMMENT. She may be mentally unstable. Let not take her to be a serious person. Is she contesting against Islam or against a Muslim.

Season I questios raised. We await the extreme response from our brethren. Season II definitely loading and plenty of suspense, within and outside America especially in northern part of....

Nice one
Islam is not a religion of peace
Any religion that kills human because of alleged blasphemy should be phased out
Re: Republican, Valentina Gomez Burns Quran Ahead Of Texas Election by kenchop: 1:26pm On Aug 31, 2025
This is Very unnecessary. You can still do what needs to be done without burning anyone's holy book. This poor leadership skill

People are angry, as humans we must do deep introspection, religion is pushing people to extremes.

It’s just a book until you find yourself in a situation where people aren’t friendly enough to spare your life… respect what others hold sacred… the same way you can’t burn the flag or the dollar

This is extreme and absolutely unnecessary though.

WHILST I DO NOT SUPPORT EXTREMISM OF ANY SORT AND CONDEMN THE BURNING OF RELIGIOUS BOOK.



I EXPECT THE LAW ABIDING MUSLIMS WILL NOT BE TAKING THE LAW INTO THEIR OWN HANDS TO END THAT WOMAN LIFE FOR BURNING A BOOK SHE BOUGHT WITH HER OWN MONEY.


IT IS EQUIVALENT TO HER BURNING HER MONEY, SO LET US JUST LEAVE HER TO HER FAITH.



A HUMAN BEING CAN BURN A BOOK THEY ARE HAVING PROBLEM BELIEVING LIKE SOME GET ANGRY AT GOD, IT IS BETWEEN THEM AND GOD.

Hmmm! This is serious. I pray it doesn't turn to something else. May the peace of God reign allover the world in Jesus name

And that is not really the problem of her constituency , she needs to focus more on human development
Re: Republican, Valentina Gomez Burns Quran Ahead Of Texas Election by israelmao(m):
This is total desecration and I am not in any way in support of this.Leave religion to those who believe in whatever faith and tread on your own chosen path.No one dares this in nation unless that person is set to set it on fire

Jesus was the God of Israel and Netanyahu said that Jesus was an embarrassment to his government. Confusion everywhere.
Re: Republican, Valentina Gomez Burns Quran Ahead Of Texas Election by Babatunjo: 1:28pm On Aug 31, 2025
It's just a paper. I hope the extremists won't go after her.

She just burnt papers. Holy book is a scam.

I agree it contains spiritual secrets and wisdom to living... But nothing more.. just papers
Re: Republican, Valentina Gomez Burns Quran Ahead Of Texas Election by Fuckyoumod: 1:28pm On Aug 31, 2025
Ordinarily and empty book was burnt, please you people should let her be.

That evil book is responsible for terrorism and beheading of innocent people.

Re: Republican, Valentina Gomez Burns Quran Ahead Of Texas Election by CLRF: 1:29pm On Aug 31, 2025
There is no emperical evidence she is burning Quran. Any book can have Arabic back covered.

But it would be foolish of her tp buy a Quran and burn it.

If you must covert a Muslim, give him same Quran in English version to read Surah Mariam, tyen points him to same place in the Bible.
